Conversation with Alex and Shauna

Where We'll Be

We’ll stay downtown and on the north side of Fredericton. Starting at Savage’s bike rentals on King St., we’ll let the guests decide what you’d like to sample first: cider or beer, and take it from there. Graystone Brewing, Red Rover Cider, and the famous James Joyce Pub are all downtown. We’ll bike across the walking bridge and visit the Picaroons Roundhouse on the northside waterfront, then make our way to Trailway Brewing on Main Street. If we have any avid bikers among us we can even head further down Main St. to visit York County Cider.

Who Can Attend

Beer enthusiasts welcomed, from craft beer novices to certified beer geeks! Guests must be 19 years or older to attend. We can accommodate 1-6 people per outing slot.

This experience will be offered in afternoons or early evenings during summer 2018.
